Chapter 5 Meet the Envoy Guo Wei
Xi Wenshi drove the big truck and parked it near the west gate of Yecheng, so that it was more convenient for the sergeants at the head of the city to watch.
General Ding arranged a team of ten sergeants to patrol near the big trucks, and instructed Zhang Luo to move the wooden fence at the city gate through five groups, surround the big trucks in front and back, and add a few fires to the vicinity at night, so that the sergeants patrolling in the field will not be very cold, and the fire can still illuminate the surroundings. It's also very well arranged.
Chai Rong led our group, and when we were about to enter the city, a horse ran out of the west gate, sat a young general, and dismounted in front of Chai Rong with a big thorn.
The general arched his hand at Chai Rong and said, "Little official, the festival makes the adults invite." ”
Chai Rong said apologetically to Xi Wenshi: "I originally wanted to have a private banquet, but I didn't expect to alarm the Jiedu Envoy, why don't you follow me to the Jiedu Embassy first, and then make arrangements?" ”
Xi Wenshi, Li Rili and others naturally had no objections, and everyone entered the city together.
For the terminator of the Han Dynasty who met so quickly four years later, Xi Wenshi was not surprised at all, in ancient times, anyone who saw such a big truck rushing over, they thought it was a monster.
It's just that Xi Wenshi was a little panicked in his heart, and he just crossed over, and he hadn't thought about how to plan the life of the crossing, holding a porcelain vase in his hand, and there were four current or future figures around him. Similarly, the four characters around Xi Wenshi, looking at Xi Wenshi's eyes are so hot, meeting such a special person should be their special day.
Xi Wenshi wants to think about it alone, and then have a good chat with them, they are all influential figures, there is always room for each other to borrow from each other, Zhao Kuangyin and Zheng En should be waiting for the opportunity, Chai Rong has not yet made a career, Li Yu is still not very concerned about national affairs, the world is in chaos, and Xiwen Shi's heart is in chaos.
The city walls, the gates, and the places where you can see people are full of curious heads, looking at the big truck, pointing and looking at the people who come out of the belly of the monster truck.
Go to see Guo Wei, Xi Wenshi must bring gifts, China is a country of etiquette, and it cannot be abolished.
When I was in Africa, because the income of expatriate employees was high and there was little entertainment, many alcoholic colleagues were happy to drink domestic high-grade liquor, and there were dozens of boxes of supplies every time. and Li Yu and others went to the banquet together.
Gifts to ancient people, there are cigarettes and alcohol, all high-end goods, and a box of canned braised pork, which feels like a visit to my father-in-law, which is weird.
If you come, you will be safe, although you are in a hurry, you will dress up and set off, and you will make the mansion of the adults.
As an engineer, I saw a lot of unfamiliar entertainment, abruptly traveled to ancient times, and went to a banquet of a big official, Xi Wenshi was still accustomed to indifference, and entered the city with Chai Rong.
When passing through the suspension bridge, look at the iron edging, the bridge plate crisscrossed by big iron nails, there is a layer of reed mats on it, and the city gate is covered with iron sheets, rusty, it seems that although there are many applications of iron, the output is still far from meeting the needs of the current chaos.
Entering the city gate, the bustling streets are paved with blue bricks, if you ignore the people who come and go, you may come to a tourist town in southern Sichuan, but the antique buildings are all ancient buildings here.
The main road of Yecheng leads directly to the official office of the Jiedu Envoy, the width is about ten meters, almost four lanes, there are no shops on both sides, they are all single-family houses with three or two courtyards, there are small doors to enter and exit on the main road, and there are few gates to open on the main road.
Yecheng is also Anyang, as the intersection of the three provinces, in ancient times it was also the place where the Later Han Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty intersected, which was a place where soldiers must fight, so the design of the main road is estimated to be convenient for wartime arrangements.
It didn't take much effort to arrive at a yamen that looked like a costume drama in the ancient costume drama, and the yamen retreated about five meters along the main road, with a horse stone at the door on the left, and a dozen or so sedan chairs or carriages neatly placed on the right.
There are four soldiers standing guard on each side of the gate, although they are sparsely lala, they are all big men with fierce and evil spirits, and the strong martial arts atmosphere on their bodies is strange and scary.
There was a bookish and housekeeper-like person standing at the door, looking at Chai Rong's arrival, he took a few steps forward and arched his hand: "Little official, the festival makes the adults invite the guests to join in." And invited Xi Wenshi and Li Yu and others.
It seems that Guo Wei is consistent with the statement in history that he attaches more importance to literati, which is a clear stream in the atmosphere of five dynasties and ten countries, which is light on literature and heavy on martial arts.
After the gatehouse and face a small courtyard, raise your eyes is a shadow wall, bypass is flat, there are no flowers and plants, and after the corridor is the inner hall of the office of the festival.
Entering the inner hall, this is very different from the film and television dramas, like Wu Sangui's lobby, the chairs paved with white tiger skin are very stylish, placed in the middle of the inner hall against the wall, and the eight immortal tables and chairs below are placed in an orderly manner, is this the cross talk special of Deyun Club, melon seeds, pastries, and tea are on the water, but unfortunately there is none.
The middle-aged man sitting upright on the white tiger skin had a slightly sad face, and there were a few scribe-looking people and a few generals sitting below, seeing Chai Rong leading Xi Wenshi and others in, everyone on the Eight Immortal Chair hurriedly got up and hugged the middle-aged man over, Xi Wenshi and Li Rili and others hurriedly hugged their fists and saluted, Chai Rong introduced Xi Wenshi to them, only to know that the middle-aged man was Guo Wei.
The envoy of the Later Han Dynasty, Guo Wei, should be the first weighty party member that Xi Wenshi has seen in the past. But Xi Wenshi has no bottom in his heart, what did Xi Wenshi do when he saw him? What did he do when he saw the Silvenstone? Is it just polite?
Siwenite has big trucks, he has the right. Hey, no matter how much, let's take a look at the familiar face first.
Hurriedly asked Zheng En to present the gift, and Xi Wenshi introduced it to Guo Wei, this is a specialty of Xi Wenshi's hometown, and I was fortunate to see the Lord of the Festival, and I didn't say anything in a hurry, so please smile at a little heart. Serve white wine and canned braised pork.
Looking at everyone's suspicious Western Stone's dress, Western Stone opened the cigarette and opened a pack to distribute cigarettes to everyone, everyone looked at Western Stone suspiciously, Li Rigid took one with a familiar car, and leaned over to urge Western Stone to light it for him.
Everyone in Guo's mansion was at a loss with a cigarette in their hands, Xi Wenshi took out a cigarette lighter, and took the lead in preparing to light a fire for Guo Wei, the flames were so frightened that everyone dispersed, the military general picked up the sword soldiers, looked at the scary eyes of everyone, Xi Wenshi hurriedly made a demonstration to everyone, lit a cigarette for himself, took a puff and spit out the smoke ring, and someone knelt on the ground and shouted the fairy master.
Li Rili stepped forward and lit a cigarette and smoked it beautifully. Xiwen Shixin said, this Li Rili doesn't look at what the scene is, he is so anxious. Pushing Li Rigi away, he waved his hand to Guo Wei and the others and said, "This is a cigarette, refreshing." ”
Guo Wei has seen the world, and when he saw it, he said: "This Xigongzi is really very human, come on, give me one." ”
lit everyone's cigarettes, and the housekeeper next to him also came, the military generals didn't seem to be very used to it, and they were a little twisted, but the literati, especially Li Yu, were very happy and happy.
After a while, there was a cough in the inner hall, everyone was very curious, Guo Wei's brows also relaxed, and he told the housekeeper to prepare for the banquet.
On the table of the eight immortals in the inner hall, there was a sumptuous banquet all of a sudden, each table had a small jar of ten catties of wine, and the faint smell of wine wafted out, Guo Wei sat on the main seat, and the person in strange clothes sat with Chai Rong, Li Yu, and people who looked like Erwen and Erwu, and the others sat on other tables.
For thousands of years of wine culture, the wine table is an important place to bring the relationship closer. Although it is five dynasties and ten kingdoms, it is almost the same. According to the amount of two catties of liquor in the height of aragonite, there should be no problem in drinking these ancients. Drink well or not, and boldness is always worthy of respect at the wine table.
Next, the Western stone can only make a good impression on the wine table.
Five dynasties and ten kingdoms, Western stone is coming.
